MODEL TH111GFCI-P (120 VAC)

SUMMARY

uOPTIONS SELECTION

At the back of the thermostat, there are three selection switches to set at your preferences.

Temperature in °C or °F, time in 12 or 24 hours and Early Start function.

uTO SET TIME AND DAY

Press on DAY, HOUR and MIN buttons to adjust time and day.

u TO RECORD THE	(COMFORT) SETPOINT TEMPERATURE
Select chosen setpoint temperature by using		or button. Press on

button (2 to 3 seconds) until icon appears on display.

uTO RECORD THE (ECONOMY) SETPOINT TEMPERATURE

Select chosen setpoint temperature by using or button. Press onbutton (2 to 3 seconds) until icon appears on display .

uCHECKING GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI)

Adjust the setpoint temperature until heating indicator ( ) appears on display. Press on TEST button. The test is conclusive if the warning light

(GFI) on thermostat is ON and power to the load is cut-off ( remain on display though). If these events do not occur, check the installation.

Press on RESET button to reset the GFCI.

INSTALLATION

This thermostat is designed to control floor electric heating systems. The resistive load must not exceed 2000 watts (NI) @ 120 VAC (16.7 A). The thermostat is equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) and therefore the isolation of the line and load are required for operation. The polarity of line connection (line and neutral) must be respected. During a ground fault, only the current in the black wire (line) of the load will be cut-off. Connect thermostat as shown on diagram.

Electricians or experienced technicians should install the thermostat. This thermostat is designed to be used with a circuit breaker.

PARTS INCLUDED

-One (1) TH111 GFCI-P (120 VAC) thermostat

-Two (2) 6-32 screws

-Four (4) solderless connectors (for copper wire)

-One (1) Temperature sensor with a 15 foot extension

TURN OFF POWER OF THE HEATING SYSTEM AT THE MAIN POWER PANEL TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Keep air vents of the thermostat clean and free from obstructions.

1) Connecting wires and mounting thermostat

Connect the rear thermostat wires to the power supply and to the load using solderless connectors for copper wires. See schematic diagram.

Push the excess wire back into the electrical box to prevent

interference with the thermostat.

120 VAC

Secure the thermostat using two

(2) 6-32 screws . Once the ther-

60 HZ

mostat is properly installed, return power to heating system.

NOTE : All cables and connections must conform to the local electrical code.

WARNING : Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used when connecting with aluminum conductors.

2) Connecting temperature sensor wire

Connect the temperature sensor
wire to the two lower screws of the
terminal block at the back of the
thermostat (no polarity need to be
respected). The wire must pass
outside the electrical box and fol-
low the wall down to the floor. The
sensing probe should be placed in	120 VAC

a representative heat area for

maximum system perfomance.	60 HZ
The sensing probe should be cen-
tered between the wires in the
mat. The temperature sensor wire
cannot cross any heater wires and
the sensing probe must not be
directly or adjacent to a heating
wire.

Power-up

When power is applied for the first time, the display must show the time 00:00, the floor temperature and the manual mode icon ( ). Other information might show up on the display if installation is defective or does not comply with the instructions. The warning light (GFI) must be off.

The message L0 or HI will appear on the display if the temperature sensor is defective or the temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F) or higher than 60 °C (140 °F). Also, the heating indicator will be present on display and the relay will be closed (current going in the load).

Checking ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)

Adjust the setpoint temperature until heating indicator ( ) appears on display. Press on TEST button. The test is conclusive if the warning light (GFI) on the thermostat is ON and power to the load is cut-off. If these events do not occur, check the installation. Press on RESET button to reset the GFCI.

If the GFCI test fails:

Check the load wires. The thermostat must be in heating mode to carry out the test (heating indicator ON).

The GFCI test should be carried out monthly. If the test fails, cut off the electric power to the heating system and call customer service or return the thermostat to your supplier for verification. If the warning light comes on during normal operation, cut off power to the heating system and have an electrician verify the installation.

OPERATING MODES

The TH111GFCI-P has two (2) operating modes.

MANUAL ( )

This mode allows you to maintain a constant temperature of the floor.

1- To activate this mode, press on Mode button to display the icon.

2- Set the desired temperature using the buttons or select the pre-programmed or or settings.

(To select the setting, press on and simultaneously.)

AUTOMATIC ( )

This mode executes your own programming.

To	activate	this mode, press on Mode button to display the	icon.
The	or	icon indicates which temperature setting is used. Also, the icon
of the program number will be shown.
